No, when Gabriel left they looked for a replacement singer but ended up going with Collins and replaced Collins with some other drummer dude. Although Collins did sing lead vocals once or twice when Gabriel was there.

Was anyone ever to complete Teenage Mutant Turtles on the NES?

Impossible to get past the birds-eye-view driving bit in the van after you fought Beebop, then there was a jump that was just impossible to make.

Ok another random question, this time about the male body, oh yes. Having been enjoying a tipple with a group of female friends, they brought to my attention that they all find those creases/folds at your lower abdomin and groin area real turn ons.

I lack them, but have always wondered how do you get them? Have I got too much fat in that area? Do I lack muscle? Whats the deal?


Yeah they're generally for skinny cunts, but you can get them by touching your toes regluarly from standing without bending your knees. Might take a while though.

That would be me then.

I've got them, and I've not even tried.

Random request for you all. Ages ago I had a "rare" demo/unreleased version of Tupac's song 'Until The End Of Time'. After hearing the Broken Wings version earlier I remembered that I had the original and tried to dig it out. Turns out I have lost the file, and want to hear it again, but it is nearly impossible to track down. I know there are some hip-hop and rap fans on here so maybe someone can help me out? PM if you can, I would be grateful thumbs-up.gif

Is it just me or does anyone else tap the top of a Coke can (Can be any sort of can) before opening it?

Ive done this for aslong as i can remember, just as a good luck thing i guess.

Am I the only person who thinks that The Devils Advocate would have had a much better ending if it stopped with Kevin walking down the centre of New York with all the buildings surrounding him, plus the great background music that goes with it?

I do too, stems from way back when I was told to stop a can exploding/fizzing when you open it.

I do the same thing with lighters too nerd.gif

What's more buoyant?

A 14 stone man made up of muscle.

or

A 14 stone man made up of fat.

The fatty as fat is less dense than muscle and thus is more buoyant.

I dont think they ever got a drummer in for recording, only for touring.

I initially thought that,but unfortunately gave it further thought.

The muscle dude would have even weight distribution.The fatty on the otherhand would have a concentration of weight around the waist that could drive him down!!!! ohmy.gif

It's an interesting conundrum I think you'll agree.

Perhaps I should have paid more attention in Physics. But I would have thought weight distribution would have been unimportant as it wouldn't affect overall density of the object which is what defines the upward force, i.e. buoyancy.

I'm not particularly afraid to ask or anything, but I might as well take this opportunity, how many times was Family Guy cancelled by Fox? And why on earth would they cancel such a great show?
gaz2050
I'm pretty sure it was only cancelled the once.

i can actually remember my techer claiming that the reason there is no world class black swimmers is due to them being geneticly built with more muscle, muscle is much denser and in so reduces the buoyancy of somone than fat...so i was told

Yep, thats about as far as I could get as well. I had heard stories of a Technodrome level but was never able to get there.

Bit of a geeky old Championship Manager question.

Was that game that SI were going to release YEARS ago where you'd go from 1966 until 1997 (I think) and manage the old version of a team, for example, you could manage Manchester United in 1968 or something ever released?

I think it was called CM Allstars.

Does anyone know the music used on ITV1's promo screens? I think it is a chillout track, and literally sounds like "eeeeee ooo eeeee ooo". It is used on the 10 second clips showing the ITV logo.

I know what you're on about but I think it's a promotional clip made just for ITV as it seems to start and end really quickly.

Ah I see. Thanks for the swift replies everyone. I remember trying an online puzzle once called 'notpr0n'. I guess that was correct in that it was not pornography. Also it was impossible and I couldnt get past about level 10.


I hated that game. I did it non-stop until I finished it sneaky.gif

I *think* it will be at the bottom of your cheques under your name, but I could be wrong. It should also be at the top of your statements.

Look for something like: "Letter"/xxxxxxx

this has been bugging me for ages - i've got a vague memory of a film (possibly a scene in a tv series) where you see part of it from the point of view of a guy within his own mind. something else is controlling him and he's locked himself in a room within his own head. he keeps going out to get box-files full of memories to stop the thing that's controlling him knowing stuff that he doesn't want it to know. i don't think you ever actually see the thing inside his head, but occaisionally here running nearby. i seem to remember it might have been like a minotaur or something.

anyway, if this seems familiar to anyone, i'd really appreciate knowing what the hell it's from.

Just caught the glimpse of some early afternoon TV for the first time in ages, and it has raised some questions:

1) Anyone know when and/or why one of the Chuckle Brothers shaved off their 'tasche?


2) Can anyone give me the low down on the presenter "Gemma" from CBBC?

depends on what the content's endcoded as.

at 320x240, 1150kbps visual and 128kbps 44khz audio, i can fit three ppv's on one dvd.

if you want dvd quality stuff, i'd say about 3-4 hours is going to be your maximum.

Did Queen ever sing "Don't Stop Me Now" live?

The reason i ask is it isn't listed on any of their live DVD's, and there isn't a performance on You Tube.
